Average Interview
Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at VMware (Bengaluru) in May 2023

Interview

First Round was Design round. Had good interaction and discussion on the design. Second Round was coding. I asked interviewer if he wants me to solve with best time complexity or any. he said you can solve by any method. I choose to solve brute force way. All test cases ran successfully. He said it will take more time complexity so solve in O(n). I though if he wants in O(n) he should have told me earlier when I asked him. Still I solved the problem and all his test cases ran successfully. But still that guy was not satisfied. He said that he will see my problem later on and will think on that. I mean what is this ??? He is not able to find any prob at the moment then he will try himself offline and then he will give feedback . Then they rejected me. I am really disappointed with this.

At VMware, we take sustainability and environmental care seriously. That's why we wanted to make our most recent EPIC2 company-wide day off special by combining it with #EarthDay and encouraging our people to get outside, explore the great outdoors, and connect with nature. And that they did! Folks worldwide went hiking, surfing and even got their hands dirty with litter pick-ups and tree-planting activities. Thank you to our employees for taking the time to appreciate the world around us and show their commitment to sustainability. 🌍🌱 #VMwareLife #Sustainability #NatureLove #EarthDay #FlashbackFriday
